I learned recently about this link that allows for a person to listen or watch the meetings at the KH that have contracted the service. You have the option to watch the meeting live or just listen. There will be a recording of the audio available until the next meeting.
I don't think that this is an official WT arrangement, it might be a private enterprise like the preaching materials . I was wondering if anyone knows more about this.
This made me imagine what would surely be a terrible show on bravo: Next time, on Kingdom Hall Live! Brother Stevens makes a shocking announcement! Will brother Henderson get disfellowshipped? Has sister Meyers been secretly dating a worldly boy? It's all going to be exposed next week!
In all likelihood it's just someone that figured they might be able to get a little cash out of the cult. If it were official it'd probably just be on JW.org. And knowing the cult's penchant for control, it'd probably be a feature that isn't even listed until you've logged in and have been approved by a local elder to use it. Also, they'd use that font that they were so proud of when they released the new bible.

I think that this is a private enterprise. As to the access, it seems like is similar to the listening arrangement where you need a pin to get in. I can see also that you have to login.
I guess the video part is new, but my mother used to dial in and listen to the meetings when she got older and couldn't get to the KH
its been going for a while (more than 10 years at least) and is a wt arrangement but you cannot watch as it is only listen in - make sure you have it on silent though as otherwise the congregation can hear you listening to TV, doing your ironing or if you have fits of coughing

This is a variation of the old listening arrangement, now you can watch the meeting live. The listening arrangement was with private concerns, not WT; I assume that this is just the same.
Thanks
oh I see
If this is Wt, this this will be the 1st stage to going fully on line. Now they can sell all their real estate as there is no longer a need for physical buildings.
Most likely a WTBTS RBC enterprise, there are a number of them that do the TV's, special phone hookups, lecterns etc.
